Nope, can't say that I have, just going by what the book says. Don't have enough time to look at other XJs, just our 1 XJ takes lots of time away from looking at other things, just to keep it going. LOL

Like they said
You have an e-fan on the driver's side, and a mechanical/clutch fan on the passenger's side. Sounds like you want to remove the clutch fan and replace it, right? Having the same overheating problems as the majority of us had/have? Replace all of your cooling system components and flush/fill it. Problem solved 90% of the time.

The later model ones were a little quieter and more efficient but I think most of the 4.0 ones fit the same.
I got my plastic-ish radiator at advance auto. It works fine and the jeep runs a bit cooler. The tranny lines were a pain to attach (the couplings)
